This book was released on with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever wondered how Kanye West and Snoop Dogg rose to stardom? By far, one of the most polarizing figures in rap music over the last decade has been Kanye West. Originally exploding onto the music scene as a hotheaded young rapper with fiery passion and incredibly insightful lyrics, West quickly became one of the biggest figures in the genre. With each successive album, West proved that he was unafraid of blurring the lines between rap music and other genres, such as rock and pop music. However, with fame came a flood of negative media attention, mostly stemming from the artist’s volatile behavior, which including public outbursts, on-stage rants, and unsettlingly egotistical interviews. With one of the most distinct voices in rap music, the man known as Snoop Dogg has become recognized as one of the living legends of the genre. Boasting a sly sense of humor and a laid-back and accessible personality, Snoop Dogg first rose to fame as one of the young talents in West Coast rap. Although his sleepy demeanor and constant smile allowed him to crossover to mainstream success as one of the most accessible stars in gangsta rap, Snoop Dogg continued to flirt with criminal activity and frequent run-ins with the law throughout his influential career.

Download or read book Yearbook written by Seth Rogen and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INSTANT #1 BESTSELLER FINALIST for the 2021 National Jewish Book Awards SHORTLISTED for the 2022 Rakuten Kobo Emerging Writer Prize A collection of funny personal essays from one of the writers of Superbad and Pineapple Express and one of the producers of The Disaster Artist, Neighbors, and The Boys. (All of these words have been added to help this book show up in people’s searches using the wonders of algorithmic technology. Thanks for bearing with us!) Hi! I’m Seth! I was asked to describe my book, Yearbook, for the inside flap (which is a gross phrase) and for websites and shit like that, so… here it goes!!! Yearbook is a collection of true stories that I desperately hope are just funny at worst, and life-changingly amazing at best. (I understand that it’s likely the former, which is a fancy “book” way of saying “the first one.”) I talk about my grandparents, doing stand-up comedy as a teenager, bar mitzvahs, and Jewish summer camp, and tell way more stories about doing drugs than my mother would like. I also talk about some of my adventures in Los Angeles, and surely say things about other famous people that will create a wildly awkward conversation for me at a party one day. I hope you enjoy the book should you buy it, and if you don’t enjoy it, I’m sorry. If you ever see me on the street and explain the situation, I’ll do my best to make it up to you.
Download or read book Raising Kanye written by Donda West and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mother of rap superstar Kanye West shares her experiences on being a single mother raising a celebrity. As the mother of hip-hop superstar Kanye West, Donda West has watched her son grow from a brilliant baby boy with all the intimations of fame and fortune to one of the hottest rappers on the music scene. And she has every right to be proud: she raised her son with strong moral values, teaching him right from wrong and helping him become the man he is today. In Raising Kanye, Donda not only pays homage to her famous son but reflects on all the things she learned about being his mother along the way. Featuring never-before-seen photos and compelling personal anecdotes, Donda's powerful and inspiring memoir reveals everything from the difficulties she faced as a single mother in the African American community to her later experiences as Kanye's manager as he rose to superstardom. Speaking frankly about her son's reputation as a "Mama's Boy," and his memorable public outbursts about gay rights and President George W. Bush, Donda supports her son without exception, and here she shares the invaluable wisdom she has taken away from each experience—passion, tolerance, patience, and above all, always telling the truth. Ultimately, she not only expresses what her famously talented son has meant to her but what he has meant to music and an entire generation.
